Comicus.It Interviews Jeryl Prescott, Jacqui of The Walking Dead

Italian website, Comicus, has another exclusive interview with one of the actors from The Walking Dead. This time around they had the chance to interview Jeryl Prescott, who is playing the new character to the series Jacqui. The interview steered clear of any information regarding the character, most likely due to NDA’s. However, Jeryl did speak on about the amount of control she had on shaping her own character.

Frank Darabont – the creative genius behind Jacqui – has been so generous. He placed this remarkable woman in my hands, and he has allowed me to help shape her. What a gift. Of course, I trusted him too. His track record is unbelievable – Shawshank Redemption and Green Mile, The Mist – and I believed that he gave me everything I needed to bring the character to life. Starting with the script, I just worked toward finding Jacqui’s truth in the extraordinary circumstances of “The Walking Dead.” I think we all felt rather free creatively because Frank and the directors never insisted that we adhere strictly to any single interpretation of the comics. That’s why the series will be exciting to people who are fans of Kirkman’s work and to people who don’t know the comics.
